With the NATO Alliance, it’s a two way street. The U.S. wants Allies who will show up when we need support.

Russia is losing hundreds of soldiers a day without making any significant gains in Ukraine. Russia must recognize that it’s time for peace and come to the negotiating table.

Great discussion at Munich Security Conference Kick off. At the upcoming NATO Defense Ministerial, and ultimately at the #NATOSummit in Ankara this summer, we’ll receive our first full report on Allied defense spending. So far, what we’re seeing is real movement. But this isn’t just about percentages: Allied focus needs to be on readiness, capabilities, and lethality. That’s the standard—and we push our Allies on it every single day.

A win-win-win: NATO Allies are buying U.S. weapons for Ukraine. This is boosting our defense industry, creating American jobs, and strengthening European security…at no cost to U.S. taxpayers. I saw this firsthand at NATO’s Security Assistance and Training Center in Wiesbaden.

I’ve spoken with NATO Allies still buying Russian oil and gas. We’re helping them transition away from funding Russia’s war machine, without disrupting their economies. Poland shows how this can be done.

#NATO’s credibility is on the line. With the #NATOSummit starting tomorrow, I spoke with nearly 200 journalists from dozens of countries to share what’s at stake: a historic commitment for every Ally to invest at least 5% of GDP in defense. Thanks to President Donald J. Trump’ bold leadership, real burden-sharing is finally within reach. #PeaceThroughStrength

As the first Senate-confirmed Ambassador of this administration, I am honored to convey a clear message on behalf of President Trump: The United States is firmly committed to #NATO, but our 31 Allies must also fulfill their commitments. After just about a week in office, I am optimistic that we are moving in the right direction. Haley Bull Scripps News

At last year’s NATO Summit, all Allies signed onto the historic Hague Defense Commitment. At next month’s NATO Summit in Ankara, we’ll see how much progress they have made in converting that commitment into real defensive capabilities.

Nearly four years of war in Ukraine saw no real dialogue between the sides until President Trump stepped in as a peacemaker. Peace is a process, but the killing needs to stop.

Under President Trump, NATO is returning to its war-fighting roots. Allies must turn the 5% commitment into a capacity to fight. This summer’s Summit in Ankara will be the report card on Allies’ ability to turn commitments into capabilities.

NATO 3.0’s value proposition is about Allies stepping up and turning commitments into capabilities. That means frigates, submarines, airplanes, and more. And not just for the Alliance–for the United States of America.

The Ukrainian people have shown extraordinary bravery, resilience, and innovation in the face of war. Yet as President Trump has said, peace — not war — is the only viable path forward. Because the senseless killing needs to stop and this conflict must come to an end.

Strong statements don’t make a difference. Strong actions backed by a strong military and a strong economy do. President Donald J. Trump is right: Europe should step up to meet the moment.

President Trump is the only leader capable of bringing Russia and Ukraine to the table for the final stages of negotiations. We always knew these talks would be challenging, and this Administration is committed to ending the bloodshed.

Welcomed Under Secretary of War Elbridge Colby to U.S. Mission to NATO for today’s Defense Ministerial in Brussels. We’ve made tremendous progress in the past year – a year in which President Donald J. Trump has done more than anyone to make NATO stronger. Allied focus needs to be on readiness, capabilities, and lethality. That’s what we are working towards every day.
